Compiz will not start... Intel Integrated Graphics Card Driver Problem??

Hello, I have a problem here... Compiz installed fine but I am unable to start it. I have the most recent version of xorg, and compiz installed. I have a Intel Integrated Graphics Card on this Toshiba L300.

I originally posted this question on the Compiz Forums but after 3 pages of communication with a guy there, he said he could not help me.

Here is the link:Unsolved [GENTOO] Compiz will not start... Composite Extention not found??? - Compiz Community Forums

Here are some commands here:

atlantis shawn # lspci

At the end of xorg.conf add this:

Code:
Section "Extensions"
  Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
